No one told me, that this would turn out this way.
Love was supposed to be candy kisses and gumdrops.
Love was supposed to be tea cups and cherries on top.
The key to all of heaven, The rose without thorns.

But they were wrong.
Our love was fire wrapped in stone.
Our love was the push and shove.
Our love was dimmed red lights and sun creeping in windows.
The hold on hang in there mentality.
The sweet passion of summer.

Our love was a rocky road, but not as sweet as the ice cream.
Our love was red lip stains on white collars.

Our love was like no other, and our love was there, oh it was.
But to you, our love was long car rides and talking about strangers with accents.
To me, Our love was warm fuzzy blankets on rainy days the same color as your eyes.

There's so much i want to say to you, but there's not much time.
Just know, that i loved you more than cherry lollipops.
Know i loved you more than Dots.
Know i loved you more than Chamomile.
Know i loved you more than ice cream sundaes.
Religion couldn't define my love for you.
You were and will always be, My rose.
this is dumb but it's what i submitted to have this new opportunity to put my poetry out there.
